Fighting Against the Odds: I Am the Right Path

If what is written in this report is true, then this incident will become more serious than expected.

Xiao Yan was killed by the snake people. As his elder sister, Xiao Ji would most likely give up on reconciliation with the snake people and would even mobilize the entire group to retaliate against the snake people.

In this situation, it no longer matters whether Xiao Jing was sincere in wanting to eliminate the barriers between the snake people and humans first.

The conflict between humans and snake people will be intensified to a more serious level than before!

Xiao Ji will take revenge on the snake people, and the snake people will take revenge on humans even more strongly than before!

Xingtian's question made Nalan Jie close his eyes slightly.

After a while, he said in a deep voice.

"I only saw that child once many years ago." Nalan Jie suddenly opened his eyes and said in a clear voice, "But even if it was just that one time, I am sure that the child would never do something like massacring the snake people tribe for no reason!"

Looking at Nalan Jie's firm eyes, Jia Xingtian felt very sad.

This is the difference between the royal family and others.

Other people can use the word "believe" at will, but the royal family cannot.

Their identity forces them to be skeptical of everything at all times.

Because what they bear is not only themselves, but the entire country and all the people of the country!

This is the sadness of the royal family, but it is also the responsibility they should bear.

However, because of this, Jia Xingtian also holds doubts about the authenticity of this report.

Jia Xingtian would never believe that this was true just because of a report from the Snake People.

However, words are the most deceptive.

Chapter 168: Bad Chess

"General Nalan, tell me your opinion." Jia Xingtian said slowly: "Assuming that Xiao Yan really didn't massacre the snake people tribe, what do you think happened?"

Nalan Jie was silent for a long time, and after sorting out his thoughts, he spoke slowly.

"First of all, the massacre of the snake people tribe should have really happened."

"According to the news we received recently, several tribes of the Snake People were attacked by unknown people. This incident should be of the same nature as those. They are all actions taken by certain people to prevent reconciliation between humans and the Snake People."

"But I personally don't think it was Xiao Yan who did the massacre."

"The report said that the leader of the Snake Tribe, Yue Mei, tried her best to protect Xiao Yan. If Xiao Yan really massacred the Snake Tribe, even if Xiao Yan was Xiao Jing's younger brother, I don't think Yue Mei would risk her life for Xiao Yan."

After listening to Nalan Jie's words, Jia Xingtian nodded slightly.

"These insights are similar to what I guessed."

Although Jia Xingtian had never seen Xiao Yan and didn't know what kind of person Xiao Yan was, he naturally wouldn't be as sure as Nalan Jie that Xiao Yan would not massacre the snake people.

The key point lies in the desperate protection of Yue Mei, the leader of the snake people.

They had previously received news that the leader of the Snake People with whom Xiao Ji communicated the most was Yue Mei. From this, it can be inferred that Yue Mei has a closer relationship with Xiao Ji than with other leaders.

But even so, if Xiao Yan really massacred the snake people tribe, even if he was Xiao Ji's younger brother, Yue Mei would not risk her life to protect him.

Jia Xingtian knew very well that the leaders of the snake people attached great importance to the honor of their race, and it was hard to imagine that Yue Mei could do such a thing.

Therefore, there is only one explanation for this matter.

That is, Xiao Yan did not massacre the snake people tribe.

In other words, the report about Xiao Yan slaughtering the snake people tribe was most likely just a legitimate reason for him to disappear.

But when combined with the relationship between Xiao Yan and Xiao Wei, it becomes very intriguing.

To take a step back, even if those leaders really killed Xiao Yan and Yue Mei who protected Xiao Yan, they should have concealed the matter as much as possible.

Release of the news of Yue Mei's killing would make the Moon Snake people dissatisfied, and even make the entire Snake tribe feel chilled, which would likely lead to a series of problems later on.

If the news of Xiao Yan's murder was released, it would most likely cause Xiao Ji to give up his previous efforts and seek revenge on the Snake People. Not only would the Snake People lose the chance to leave the Tagor Desert, but it would also further intensify the conflict between humans and the Snake People, which would be of no benefit to them at all.

Those leaders should understand this.

etc.

Jia Xingtian raised his eyebrows and gently pinched his goatee.

Yes. On purpose?

But even if it was intentional, what was their purpose?

Jia Xingtian would never believe that someone had no ulterior motive in releasing such bombshell news that would do more harm than good.

Those leaders are not that stupid.

Jia Xingtian picked up the report again and read every word carefully.

After a moment, he was slightly stunned, looked at Nalan Jie and asked.

"General Nalan, what do you think the four words [no remains] mean?"

Hearing Jia Xingtian's question, Nalan Jie's eyebrows suddenly jumped.

Why did Jia Xingtian ask himself this question?

"No bones left. No bones left."

Nalan Jie kept muttering to himself, and then his eyes suddenly gleamed with a gleam of light.

No body left?!

Nalan Jie had some guesses in his mind, but he frowned again.

"But if that's the case, what are they doing it for?"

"The reason is obvious." Jia Xingtian crumpled the report in his hand and whispered, "The Snake People may have sent out spies."

"Come to think of it, unknown people frequently attack the tribe and leave safely. This kind of thing can be solved by strengthening the defense, but it has not been dealt with until now, not to mention that it happened in our own territory."

"It must be someone from the snake tribe who tipped off the situation in advance."

"But no matter what, the army can't go there. Bringing the army there will only make things worse."

As he said this, Jia Xingtian looked at Nalan Jie.

"General Nalan, can you come with me?"

"I would like to go with Jia Lao."

Nalan Jie said in a serious voice.

Not to mention for the Gama Empire, even if it was just for the child Xiao Yan, he would have to go to the Tagor Desert!

The holy land of the snake people, the core area of ​​the snake people, and also the place where the queen of the snake people is located.

In response to the massacre of the Akachu tribe, the snake people of various tribes were evacuated here, making the originally deserted holy land much more lively than before.

At this time, outside the hall, Yin Shi was sitting on the ground with his old eyes closed.

"The underworld!"

With a roar, a snakeman elder rushed out of the hall, glaring at Yinshi's back.

"The underworld! Are you going to turn the world upside down?!"

"You teamed up with other leaders to kill your colleagues! You withdrew all the snake people back to the holy land without the permission of Her Majesty the Queen. What on earth do you want to do?!"

The Tagor Desert is already short of supplies, and each race has different personalities and habits, so they were divided into eight tribes out of necessity. But now they are all gathered together. It's not a big deal in the short term, but there will definitely be problems over time!

And there is Yue Mei. Even if Yue Mei is really a traitor as reported, she is still the leader of the tribe. She should be captured and taken to the holy land for punishment, rather than being privately executed by Yinshi and other leaders!

Facing the elder's questioning, Yin Shi did not turn back and answered slowly.

"Yue Mei protected the murderer who massacred my tribe and fought stubbornly. We killed her only when we had no choice."

"The Snake People should have withdrawn from the Holy Land long ago. It is my fault that the tribe has been delayed from the beginning when the tribe was attacked by unknown people until now."

"Her Majesty is now in a critical period of evolution and cannot tolerate any interruption. When Her Majesty is away, it is the eight chiefs who decide everything in the tribe."

"Now, the other leaders have no objection to my decision, so why should the elder say anything more?"

Yin Shi's indifferent words made the snakeman elder's face turn purple with anger. He wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't know how to say it.

After all, as Yin Shi said, when Her Majesty the Queen is away, all matters that happen in the tribe are jointly discussed and executed by the eight chiefs, and they, the eight chiefs, are the Queen's agents.

Although he, as an elder, has the power to interfere with the decisions of the eight leaders, his power is extremely limited.

".snort!"

Finally, the snakeman elder threw his hands away and said something indignantly.

"Yinshi! Take care of yourself!!!"

Feeling the movement of the snakeman elder's departure, Yin Shi sighed softly in his heart.

The Snake People ordered the entire tribe to withdraw to the Holy Land because of the massacre at Akachu, but this reason was just a cover.

The real reason was that after Yinshi released that report, he felt a little uneasy in his heart.

Although it was just a strategy, Yin Shi's intuition told him that it was a very bad move.

But now that we have done this, we have to do it to the end.

Only by achieving his goal as soon as possible can this storm be stopped.

So come on, if my guess is correct.

Yin Shi slowly opened his eyes, with a hint of anticipation flashing in them.

Let me take a closer look and see who is causing trouble!

Chapter 169 Swallowing People Whole

Outside the holy land of the snake people, the cloaked woman and Qinglin hid behind the sand dunes, gazing at the bustling snake people in the distance. Her expression under the cloak became extremely ugly.

Hey, hey, hey. Are you really going to bring all the snake people to the holy land?! Are you really not afraid of trouble?

The snake people in each tribe have different personalities, some are even conflicting, and it is easy to cause problems if they are put together.

Moreover, the supplies in the snake tribe's holy land are not enough. Even if the snake tribes of each tribe bring all the food of the tribe when they come to the holy land, how long can they survive just by eating? After eating, don't they have to find food in the desert? How many people can the food found near the holy land feed?

Damn, this thing really got out of hand.

The cloaked woman lowered her head, frowned, and gritted her teeth.

The problems that I can think of are definitely not what those leaders have thought of.

However, even though they risked bringing chaos to the entire clan, they still did it.

But to be honest, for the cloaked woman, the focus now is not whether the snake people will cause trouble if they continue like this.

The point is, she and Qinglin can't get in.

Yesterday, she took the Flame Thorn Token given to her by Xiao Yan and approached the holy land unimpeded, but that was when the report had not yet been issued!

According to the current situation, the Flame Thorn Token in his hand is no different from a waste. So many tribes are here, including the Black Snake Tribe that hates humans to the extreme.

Not to mention whether the token is useful or not, I'm afraid that the Black Snake Tribe will rush up and chop me and Qinglin into pieces before I even show the token!

How to fix it.

Looking at the distressed expression of the cloaked woman, Qing Lin thought for a moment, then reached out and patted her cloak.

"Sister, Qinglin has a way to get through."

"Huh? Do you have any idea?"

The cloaked woman looked at Qinglin suddenly, her eyes gleaming with brilliance, which startled Qinglin slightly, and then Qinglin nodded slightly.

"Well, the little spirit can get into the sand, and it can carry us underground."

As he said this, Qinglin lowered his head slightly and tapped his index fingers with an embarrassed look.

"That's right. It might make my sister uncomfortable."

"I've been through so many hard times! What does it matter if I'm a little uncomfortable as long as I can get in?" The cloaked woman responded without hesitation, staring into Qinglin's emerald eyes, "Just do whatever you want! I won't complain!"

Qinglin stared blankly at the determined eyes of the cloaked woman, then nodded heavily.

"Ok!"
